| |
|  October 7 |
| |
| 1954 - Beruges, France. A farmer, Edouard Thebault, age 31, awoke at |
| 4:15 a.m. to see a luminous object, two or three meters in diameter, |
| emitting a beam of light that swept the countryside. (Sources: |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 219; Michel Figeut & |
| Jean-Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le premier dossier complet des rencontres |
| rapprochees en France, p. 129). |
| |
| 1954 - St.-Jean-d'Asse, France. Mr. Alexandre Tremblay, a café owner, |
| was driving on Route N138 at 6:20 a.m. when he saw an intense, blue |
| light coming toward him. The object producing it was a one-meter long |
| cigar, red and blue in color. The engine and headlights of his |
| vehicle died. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 220; |
| Michel Figeut & Jean-Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le premier dossier complet |
| des rencontres rapprochees en France, pp. 129-130). |
| |
| 1954 - Hennezis, France. At 6:30 p.m. Claude and Francoise |
| Lanssellin, ages 10 and 9, witnessed the landing of a luminous, red |
| object. It was shaped like a half egg (sliced lengthwise), They saw |
| two occupants who looked like normal men. (Sources: Jacques Vallee, |
| Passport to Magonia, p. 219; Jimmy Guieu, Black Out sur les Soucoupes |
| Volantes, pp. 199-202; Aime Michel, A propos des Soucoupes Volantes, |
| p. 182; Michel Figeut & Jean-Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le premier dossier |
| complet des rencontres rapprochees en France, pp. 132-133). |
| |
| 1954 - Plozevet, France. Early in the day the crew of several fishing |
| boats at sea saw a luminous, orange-colored object over the coast, |
| apparently surrounded by dense smoke. Villagers in Plozevet saw the |
| same object and stated independently that it came within 10 meters of |
| the ground, then flew away to the southeast. (Sources: France-Soir, |
| October 9, 1954; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 219; Michel |
| Figeut & Jean-Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le premier dossier complet des |
| rencontres rapprochees en France, p. 131). |
| |
| 1954 - Two red mushroom-shaped objects, six feet in diameter, landed |
| this morning in Mendionde, France. Two little men, 2.5 feet tall |
| stood beside it, speaking an unknown language and gesticulating to |
| the witness to come closer. However, when he did they shut the door |
| in his face, and the UFO took off straight up. The grass at the site |
| was crushed and turned yellow. (Source: David F. Webb and Ted |
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case A1689). |
| |
| 1954 - Jettingen, France. A railroad employee, Rene Ott, saw a |
| mushroom-shaped object three meters in diameter, in a field three |
| meters away from Route N16 and one meter above the ground. A luminous |
| rectangle, like a door, was seen on the side. It took off and flew |
| about five meters over the head of the witness, following him to the |
| next village. (Sources: Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight |
| Line Mystery, p. 143; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 219). |
| |
| 1954 - Monteux, France. At 2:30 p.m. Rene Margaillon, a farmer, was |
| traveling between Monteux and Althen-des-Paluds when saw a metallic |
| object that had landed in a field. It was hemispherical, about 2.5 |
| meters in diameter. The witness gasped for air and felt "paralyzed." |
| (Source: Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery, |
| p. 145; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 220; Michel Figeut & |
| Jean-Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le premier dossier complet des rencontres |
| rapprochees en France, pp. 131). |

| o'clock in the evening. (Source: Michel Figeut & Jean-Louis Ruchon, |
| OVNI: Le premier dossier complet des rencontres rapprochees en |
| France, pp. 133). |
| |
| 1954 - Marcel Guyot was coming home from work at 7:30 p.m. near the |
| village of St.-Etienne-sous-Barbuise, France, and his son Jacques |
| followed the same road 10 minutes later. Both saw three objects on |
| the ground at a railroad crossing that gave off a bright white light. |
| One was circular, the other two were cigar-shaped. (Sources: Aime |
| Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery, p. 146; Jacques |
| Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 220). |
| |
| 1954 - Mr. Sebelli saw an object land in the village of Bompas, |
| France shortly before midnight. He called his neighbors, and they |
| observed the departure of the craft. (Sources: Aime Michel, Flying |
| Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery, p. 146; Jacques Vallee, |
| Passport to Magonia, p. 220). |
| |
| 1959 - Eastern Airlines flight 541, flying over Virginia at 3:10 |
| a.m., was paced by a cigar-shaped object for ten minutes. The craft |
| had illuminated portholes. At approximately the same time (8:00 p.m. |
| New Zealand time) a large white, domed shaped mass flew quickly |
| toward the west over Fairlie, New Zealand, and was gone from sight |
| behind some hills. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, cases |
| 5835 & 5836). |
| |
| 1964 - At 3:30 p.m. a grayish black wingless object w two stubby fins |
| in the rear portion followed a C-119 "flying boxcar" transport plane |
| over Waltham, Massachusetts. (Source: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs: |
| Interplanetary Visitors, p. 24). |
| |
| 1968 - A cigar-shaped object flew rapidly to the south over Lagoa |
| Rodrigo, Brazil at 9:20 a.m. A jet aircraft attempted to follow it, |
| but the UFO was much faster. On this same day a 42-foot diameter |
| circle was found in Ngatea, New Zealand. The circle was somewhat |
| radioactive and the plants inside the circle were bone-dry as if |
| completely dehydrated. (Source: Irene Granchi, UFO Abductions and |
| Reports from Brazil, p. 74; Data-Net Report, January 1970, p. 11). |
| |
| 1974 - In the predawn hours on this day in Plant City, Florida a |
| motorcyclist had his engine and all its electrical system die. He had |
| been traveling at 70 mph when suddenly there appeared a UFO right |
| behind him, moving at the same speed. After the ignition system |
| failure he coasted to the roadside and the UFO shot off toward the |
| northeast. (Source: Tampa (FL) Neighbor, October 16, 1974). |
| |
| 1974 - After being summoned telepathically to a remote desert spot |
| near Chilca, Peru the witness saw a luminous, disc-shaped object land |
| this night. It touched down nearby on four legs like protrusions. A |
| door opened and a very tall blond man wearing a silvery outfit came |
| out. The being communicated via telepathy with the witness. (Source: |
| Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1974, case #282, citing |
| Lisa Rome, UFO Universe, June-July 1991). |
| |
| 1975 - Robert Suffern of Three Mile Lake reported that a UFO landed |
| about 13 miles northwest of Bracebridge, Ontario on this night, and |
| he almost ran over one of its occupants with his car. Mr. Suffern |
| said the craft was about 12-14 feet across, nine feet high, and |
| circular in shape. "There was a black strip running around the |
| circumference, and what looked to be a small platform at the bottom |
| of the vehicle." Mr. Suffern said he found the craft while driving |
| around to investigate "a glow in the sky" seen by his sister, and who |
| telephoned him to say she thought his barn might be on fire. |
| The UFO was parked on a road that led to the lake. A few seconds |
| after he saw it, the ship lifted straight up from the road in front |
| of his car. "There was no dust raised, no apparent thrust, nothing," |
| he said. "It went straight up and over the trees." |
| |
| Mr. Suffern turned his car around and headed home. However, when he |
| reached the top of the hill, he had to slam on his brakes to avoid |
| hitting "some sort of creature." The being was the height of the car |
| fender. It was humanoid in appearance and wore a globe-shaped helmet, |
| and walked like a midget. The helmet was slightly lighter in color |
| and the "spacesuit" was like tin foil that had been crushed and |
| flattened out. The creature turned, took three or four steps, vaulted |
| over a fence, and disappeared. Suffern raced back to his house and |
| arrived in time to see the object hover near his home before crossing |
| the lake. He was badly shaken by the incident. "It's all right to |
| think what you would do…but when it actually happens, you are scared |
| because you are dealing with the unknown." (Source: Bob Gribble, |
| "Looking Back October 1975", National UFO Reporting Center website). |
| |
| 1977 - Nine disc-shaped UFOs circled a Soviet Navy submarine tender |
| on this day. The radio, electronics, and on-board communications were |
| all disrupted. (Source: Jacques Vallee, UFO Chronicles of the Soviet |
| Union: A cosmic Samizdat, p. 29). |
| |
| 1979 - Four 15-year-old youngsters were playing in a field in Heiloo, |
| Netherlands at around seven p.m. when they encountered several |
| strange luminous flashes and lights around them. They soon saw what |
| appeared to be a luminous "mass" behind some nearby bushes. One of |
| them approached and was confronted by a tall humanoid with a large |
| human-like face. The being had white hair and large, red, |
| almond-shaped protruding eyes. The figure wore a shiny white robe. |
| One of the other boys then approached on a bicycle and saw three |
| other similar figures standing immobile about 50 meters away. |
| Apparently a total of seven humanoids were encountered at one time or |
| another for the next hour. They seemed to be able to move around from |
| one place to another in an instant. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, |
| Humanoid Contact Database 1979, case # 1487, citing Hans Van Kampen). |
